The Green Bay Packers are finally set to unleash Jordan Love as their starting quarterback after Aaron Rodgers secured his trade to the New York Jets.
The 24-year-old was drafted back in 2020 after being selected in the first round from Utah State, but has spent his NFL career watching on from the sidelines so far. Many thought Love would be given a go last season as Rodgers once again teased a move, but his eventual three-year contract extension ended those hopes.
Love's patience has now paid off, as the youngster is set to be given free reign and prove to the Packers that he is capable of leading the franchise. But the quarterback did have some doubts about his Packers future last season, and has now admitted that he suffered the "hardest time" when Rodgers re-signed.
